Everyone's favorite part of a game is doing escort missions through a water level?

QTEs suck.
Escort quests suck.
and finally, bad controls are not an acceptable substitute for actual difficulty.

This^. Also, people will always claim that being forced to run away is more horrifying in horror games, despite the fact that humans can't outrun any of our natural predators, and we evolved to kill them with spears instead-meaning your chances of outrunning a demonic creature are even lower than your chances of killing it-which in turn means that being able to outrun a demon monster thing hurts immersion.

Same.. in 1999 on Pokemon Blue.. Then when I went to a track and field meet at another school someone went through my bag and stole my Green GBC, Pokemon Blue and LoZ: Link's Awakening. Though they did take the batteries out of my GBC and leave them in my bag >.>
